Using the following website: https://www.nasen.org find a program for your state: The table from Unit 7 highlighted in table form the key points from the research literature and should be using in thinking about the issues, both ethically and methodologically, concerning developing a NEP/SEP program evaluation. Drawing on the previous Program Evaluation assignments (1-4), and using where you live as the hypothetical case, submit a two-to-three page report (single-spaced, 1” margins) that does the following: Make sure, you look and see what the program actually does in terms of services. Consider the mission of the program if it is listed, and then discuss what an evaluation could look based on what has been learned in PA 502/503, the research you have examined concerning SEP/NEP programs, as well as addressing ethical and pragmatic issues, generally speaking, but also in terms of what an assessment team must be cognizant for the local program. People who could possibly be on the assessment team are the audience of the paper. This is where the social, economic, cultural, demographics, etc., for the local area could play a role in how a program evaluation is developed and conducted (and should be discussed). Make sure to provide adequate detail for the area along with the research to indicate what should be considered regarding a program evaluation for the program you chose. Items to include in Paper (Be sure to use headings and subheadings to identify each section of the report) Problem Statement: Provide a high-level overview of the problem. The problem should be related to the problems researched in the articles you reviewed this term. You will be showing how previous research can be used to address the problem. Program Description: Describe the program focusing on how it will address the problem. In your narrative, show how the program is consistent with the agency’s mission. Identify the major program activity that will be used produce the desired output/outcome. Purpose of the Evaluation: What kind of program evaluation is being proposed? Will this be a formative, process (description, monitoring, quality assurance), or outcome evaluation? Define and describe the specific type of program evaluation. Reference material from Royse, Thyer, and Padgett to support your definition and description. Why is the evaluation necessary? What is the focus of the evaluation? Be specific. Literature Review: Only the assigned articles from this term will be used in the literature review. Use the published research to show why the proposed program evaluation is needed. Example of using the literature to support a quality assurance evaluation: Each of the articles we read this term explained how a needle exchange program has some output. None of the researchers explored whether the processes used to administer the program had any effect on the output. The literature review would show the need for a quality assurance evaluation. Methodology: In this section you will describe how you would go about implementing the recommended program evaluation. Design: Use a Single System Research Design. Describe the SSRD. What is the advantage of using the identified SSRD? Why this SSRD and not some other type? Sampling: Who or what is being studied? How will the subjects be selected? How many? What are the essential characteristics of the sample subjects? Data Collection: Identify the primary independent and dependent variables. What data will be collected for each? Evaluate the face validity and reliability of the primary independent and dependent variables. How will the data be collected? Data Analysis: How will the data be analyzed? Select a statistical technique we studied this term. Explain how you will use it to evaluate the data. What are the advantages of using the technique? What is a drawback? What statistical techniques (if appropriate) will be used? Results: There will be no results since the evaluation will not be implemented. However, if it was implemented, what would success look like? The definition of success must be consistent with the problem statement, purpose of the program, mission of the organization, and supported by the collected data. What will you need to find in the data to conclude the program is working? What chart type would you used to explain the results? What descriptive statistics will you use? Ethical Considerations: Use the assigned sources from the term to address the following: Compensation and Incentives, Cultural Issues, Pragmatic Issues, and Political Issues. This means that within the Ethical Considerations section (properly identified in your paper), you will have four subheadings – one for each of the aforementioned issues. For each issue (Compensation and Incentives, Cultural Issues, Pragmatic Issues, and Political Issues), identify the single most important topic as it applies to your program. The application of each topic needs to be specifically tailored to the program you are evaluating. For example, a topic related to Political Issues might be some influential stakeholders who are opposed to the program. Provide a brief overview of how will address the challenge. The overview needs to be supported by referencing the text and the assigned articles for this term. Make sure to be clear, concise, and organized. 7.2table.PNG Table7.2.PNG
